  LINKAGES addresses how value-chains of sociobiodiversity products, grounded in local knowledge and produced in forest, agroforestry, and floodplain-lakes, can support local economies and regional transformation towards inclusive and sustainable bioeconomies for the Brazilian Amazon. From local to international markets, sociobiodiversity products represent the largest and most inclusive bi…

  There is a clear need for sustainable methods to combat agricultural pests. Copper salts are widely used in regular agriculture, but also in organic agriculture. One agricultural area where copper salts are used widely is citriculture, to combat citrus canker, a disease caused by the plant pathogen Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri. The disease is endemic in all major orange producing region…

• Abstract

  Premature renal ageing is a risk factor for cardio-vascular adverse events, the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and progression towards end stage renal disease (ESRD). ESRD is associated with low quality of life, high morbidity and mortality, and tremendous health care expenses. The incidence of ESRD varies greatly among countries with 6% in The Netherlands compared to 11% in …

• Abstract

  The adoption of crop-livestock integration systems has been used in Brazil as a strategy to achieve a more sustainable and productive agriculture, with a perspective of its implementation in areas of monoculture and extensive grazing, many of which under degradation. The integrated systems present organic compounds inputs with quantities and composition different from the traditional syst…
